[00:14.16]On my fifth birthday, I got so upset,
[00:20.37]About the brand new bike, that I didn't get.
[00:26.28]I'd prayed my heart out, and it didn't seem fair,
[00:32.35]I told my grandpa, I guess God doesn't care,
[00:37.35]And he just smiled, and said my child,
[00:43.83]
[00:44.11]Make no mistake, every prayer you pray,
[00:50.48]gets answered, even though,
[00:56.76]sometimes, the answer is no.
[01:04.93]
[01:10.00]Five years later, out behind the shed,
[01:16.58]With a stolen pack of grandpa's cigarettes,
[01:22.11]I struck a match, and held that first one to my lips,
[01:28.41]And prayed to God please let me get away with this,
[01:33.84]And through the smoke, I saw grandpa standing there.
[01:39.79]
[01:40.08]Make no mistake, every prayer you pray,
[01:46.30]gets answered, even though,
[01:52.60]sometimes, the answer is no.
[02:23.83][02:01.47]
[02:26.38]When I think of all the answers in my life,
[02:31.43]I would have to say,
[02:37.95]There's no doubt it was always for the best,
[02:46.51]When I didn't get my way.
[02:52.24]
[02:54.05]Grandpa got older, like grandpas do,
[03:00.48]His health was failing, and I guess I knew,
[03:06.72]It'd be best if he was called on hold,
[03:12.51]but selfishly I prayed that God would keep him hanging on,
[03:18.70]And when he passed away, in my mind I heard him say.
[03:24.36]
[03:24.65]Make no mistake, every prayer you pray,
[03:30.71]gets answered, even though,
[03:49.42][03:35.98]sometimes, the answer is no.
[03:57.19][03:43.34]is no.
